📖About
Subscription Balance Reader is a droid for reading subscription balances from providers’ own billing surfaces. Its purpose is to keep money surfaces from having to guess a balance.
📖Usage
It supports the estate’s Subscriptions, Plans & Balances building block, supplying provider balances for use by money surfaces.
📖Purpose
Read each subscription's balance from the provider's own billing surface, so no money surface has to guess one.
📖Duties
Ask every provider that publishes a balance what it is, and record the answer with the instant it was taken. Record a refusal just as plainly — an expired session is a fact about the session, not a reason to leave yesterday's figure looking current. A run where NO provider could be read fails, so the sweep sees it.
📖Constraints
Reads only. Session material lives with the other credentials outside the repository and is never logged. A provider that publishes no balance is not polled and is named as unreadable rather than derived.
